Yesterday the dishes were left in the sink.
Yesterday we rested.
Yesterday the work that did get done was shared by all.
Yesterday I made space to also care for me.
We made play dough. (Black was the runaway favorite, colored with a tablet of activated charcoal. And may I suggest mixing in glitter to any color? So. Fun.)
There was knitting. (This simple hat for Sage.)
There was even a movie for goodness sake. A rare and special treat for all.
And today?
More of the same is on our agenda.
Right through until Monday.
Wishing a wonderful weekend and good health to you all!
Thanks for all the kindness.
Love,
Rachel
Rest. Yes I hear you on that one. Same thing over here. Having had the flu for the first time ever (that I can remember) I am not a fan. Makes me consider a flu shot next year. I probably won’t do that though. I’d be more scared of it than having the flu. Hope you all feel better. I am so thankful that Athena didn’t get sick. That is so hard to watch little ones suffer.
We are right there with you. Doing my best to do the bare minimum and the rest can wait til Monday!
Oh no! You got it too, Angie? Let me know if I can share our pot of soup with you. Id be happy to run it over. xo
What movie? I’m always curious what non-movie-watchers choose!
Movies are ever so tricky over here. Lupine dislikes any suspense or anything even slightly scary. She watched Despicable Me with her brother recently and they loved it, so we watched it again! She also liked Mary Poppins, but that is about it for movies that went over well for Lu.
Can I recommend some Hayao Miyazaki animated children’s films? My children are also REALLY sensitive to scary/suspense. But they love these magical Japanese films. “My Neighbor Totoro” “Ponyo” and “KiKi’s Delivery Service” are their absolute favorites.
I’ve been knitting a lot from the Simple collection. I’ve loved each pattern I’ve tried. Right now I’m actually finishing up my second pair of Rye socks for my husband. Sometimes simple is just right, ya know?
It’s good to see you have all been getting some rest. Take care!
Funny. You asked the same question I was thinking!
Take care – your weekend sounds absolutely perfect.
Sending healing thoughts your way.
Ah. I hope you are feeling well. Just looking at your knitting makes me happy. It’s KILLING me to look at my basket of almost-finisheds and not be able to knit. One thumb…no knitting…oh well! 🙂
What is that gorgeous knit on her head in that last picture?
Its a little shawl I made from a stray skein of sock yarn. My notes are here! http://www.ravelry.com/projects/LuSaMama/holden-shawlette
Thank you so much~
